Currently I am working on a translation of the Treasury of Manifest Dharma root text in verse and the 9th Karmapa Wangchuk Dorje's commentary on it, Youthful Play (gzhon nu rnam rol).

In preparing for this and during the translation of these texts, I have studied the following texts:

chos mngon pa mDzod rtsa ba dang rang 'grel rgyal sras grags pa'i bshes gnyen gyi mDzod 'grel Wangchuk Dorje mdzod 'grel Youthful Play (gzhonnu rnam rol) Mikyo Dorje's mdzod 'grel 'grub bde spyi 'jo Mipham Rinpoche's mDzod 'grel Leo Pruden's translation of Poussin's translation

The big gaps in this list are mchims chen and slog dpon gang pel's commentaries which I have glanced at but not really studied. However, what I have seen in both of those seems to be well covered in Mikyo Dorje's extensive commentary. slob dpon 'dus bzang would be good to read of course but I have not yet had the time to do so.

I've completed a draft translation of the root text from the Tibetan and Wangchuk Dorje's commentary. I'm proofing the commentary now and planning to check the root against the Sanskrit.
